The Institute of Neurological Recovery (INR) is a private medical practice dedicated to treating adults living with chronic neurological impairments following stroke, brain injury, and other related conditions. INR was founded by Edward Tobinick, M.D., who invented and developed the innovative perispinal etanercept (PSE) treatment. PSE was developed for patients who have exhausted conventional rehabilitation options.
Patients travel to our Boca Raton, Florida office from across the United States and around the world seeking evaluation for our patented PSE treatment. Since 2010, the Institute has evaluated and treated more than 5,000 patients and welcomed individuals from over 110 countries.
The Institute is internationally recognized for its experience with perispinal etanercept (PSE), a patented treatment approach developed by our founder, Edward Tobinick, M.D.
Our medical approach targets persistent neuroinflammation — a biological process increasingly recognized in scientific research as contributing to ongoing neurological dysfunction long after the original injury.
Every patient receives an individualized medical evaluation. Treatment recommendations are based on medical history, physicial examination, review of imaging studies, and clinical judgment. Not every patient is a candidate for treatment.
INR welcomes referrals from neurologists, geriatricians, internists, family physicians, other health care providers of patients with select neuroinflammatory disorders. Please note: INR medical providers utilize PSE for a limited number of off-label indications. INR medical staff do not use PSE for treating Parkinson’s disease, brain tumors, or carpal tunnel syndrome.
Our experienced medical providers are dedicated to delivering exceptional care while guiding patients and families through every step of the evaluation and treatment process.

Perispinal etanercept is a method of targeting detrimental neuroinflammation using etanercept, a special anti-inflammatory drug, delivered utilizing a novel, non-invasive injection method.
Perispinal etanercept is NOT experimental. Perispinal etanercept has been used to treat more than 5,000 chronic stroke patients since 2010 at the Institute of Neurological Recovery.
No, it is not too late. Neuroinflammation can last for years, or even decades, after brain injury. Life-changing neurological improvements following perispinal etanercept treatment performed weeks, months, years, or even decades after stroke or brain injury are not uncommon.
Referrals are not required. The Institute of Neurological Recovery has received, and welcomes, referrals from neurologists, speech pathologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, primary care physicians, online stroke groups, and, of course, patients and their family members.
